Comments Off on People's Daily "Bell": to undermine the political foundation of Sino-US relations is foolish

Local time on March 16, US President Trump signed contacts with Taiwan, the US Congress had approved the bill, advocated lifting restrictions on US-Taiwan high-level exchanges。
This serious violation of the US-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiques regulations, interference in China's internal affairs, the Chinese side is strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposed。 In the crucial moment in the development of Sino-US relations, the United States in an attempt to profit by playing the Taiwan card, would be counterproductive, eat the bitter fruit。
The Taiwan issue concerns China's sovereignty and territorial integrity, involving China's core interests。
The Chinese government has repeatedly stressed that to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity of the determination to unswervingly。
China has repeatedly urged the United States cautiously handle the Taiwan issue, without any official exchanges and contacts with Taiwan and not send any wrong signals to the Taiwan independence separatist forces, so as not to interfere with and harm the overall situation of Sino-US relations。 The United States insists on dealing with the introduction of the so-called Act of Taiwan, a Chinese challenge the bottom line, is seriously interfere with Sino-US relations and the situation in the Taiwan Strait, the Chinese people will not agree。
Adherence to the one China principle is the general consensus of the international community, is the cornerstone of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait。
The United States has repeatedly said maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Straits has its deep lasting benefit, but some practices are contradictory。 Since 2016, the US House and Senate filed dozens of Taiwan-related proposal。 After last June, the US State Department approved the first case of Trump took arms package to Taiwan。
Last December, Trump signed the fiscal year 2018 National Defense Authorization Act, clearly strengthen US-Taiwan defense relations。 Today, Taiwan's exchanges with the Act and attempting to ban high-level exchange of visits between officials of the United States and Taiwan, constitute an infringement of China's sovereignty, national unity and security interests, but also undermine the political foundation of Sino-US relations。 As everyone knows, the United States take any wrong moves undermine peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, can only give yourself the same or even more intense reaction force。
The United States was filled with conservative, isolationist and populist sentiment, recent speculation China threat much talk。 The face of booming China, the United States part of the psychological distortions, still holding the hegemonic mentality, an attempt to counterbalance China。 This Cold War mentality, unpopular in the 21st century, it is impossible to work。 In this regard, any political wisdom of all Americans have to understand it。 Mai Ai Wen US Department of Asian Affairs and former Director of the National Security Committee, former director of the National Security Committee on China affairs He Ruien had jointly published an article called on the government not to Trump tool to pressure Taiwan as China's。
The one-China principle there is no room for compromise。
On the Taiwan issue, China has to adhere to the bottom line, there is no shake anyone。 Our complete reunification of the motherland's unwavering determination, 31 measures to promote cross-strait economic cooperation and cultural exchanges recently released by the Taiwan compatriots and Taiwan-funded enterprises to wide acclaim。 Reunification of China is a historical necessity, any move to attempt to interfere with this trend are foolish, futile。
China attaches importance to friendly cooperation with the United States, always willing to develop healthy and stable Sino-US relations based on mutual respect, cooperation and win-win basis。 US should do is to respect China's sovereignty, rather than constantly test China's bottom line; is to follow the consensus of both sides to move forward, to seek the common denominator of interests, rather than behind the times to turn the clock back。
Significance of Sino-US relations beyond the bilateral scope and a good, healthy Sino-US relations conforms to the interests of the two countries, but also in the interests of the Asia-Pacific region and the world。
The United States should recognize the situation carefully and properly handle the Taiwan issue, take concrete actions to safeguard the overall situation of Sino-US relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, the effective implementation of the Responsibilities。
